Trying to use the netinst iso to install Fedora-Server 36 on a new 1T NVME drive. The drive is gpt has currently a 17M Microsoft Reserved partition and the rest of the disk is a single ntfs partition. The system is uefi and currently boots windows and fedora 35 on other drives

intended

/boot 1G

/     200G

The netinst wants a bios boot partition, and a /boot/efi partition.
Wondering about the biosboot partition if it is an uefi system. Did you try with enough free space before you boot net install?

With no free space available it may treat the hardware as newly to install and delete the current content of the hd completely. And maybe struggle with an unknown partition type. With enough free space for installation available, it should ignore the existing partitions.

Dual boot is a bit tricky today. And we assume Server to be the only inhabitant on the system. Co-existence is not a test case.


Did you specifically use the Server net install disk (not another one and then switch to Server as install target).

Setting up the custom install on the drive as described. There was no free space as such since the configuration was to be changed and the existing ntfs partition reconfigured. Trying to set up the configuration gave me an error that it needed a biosboot partition and would not allow the install to continue.
